Kicker ZR360 Vs. Fosgate BD1000

At even amounts of output(backing the gain down on the BD) which one draws less current at a 2ohm load.This will run a single CVR12.The issue is it being run off two deep cycles in a boat.The ZR360 was pushing a C12 SVC 4-ohm bridged mono.Now it is pushing a CVR12 DVC 4-ohm bridged mono and is kicking my HU off at higher volumes when the bass hits.You can see the lights dim on the HU(alpine).It had no issue running the C12 obviously at 4ohm bridged but the 2-ohm bridged mono seems to be ******* the juice..

I'm thinking the BD1000 draws less but is it substantially less or nearly the same?

FTR the boat has a generator that will maintain about 13v.

Maybe my ground is not adequate on the HU?

Thx for any guidance.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I do think my ground for the amp and HU is a single 4ga to the battery split at the amp.

 
I was mistaken.I have a single 4ga POWER to the AMP and then a 10ga to the HU split from the amp 4ga.

The HU and the AMP have their own 10ga ground from the battery.

I'm thinking the 10ga ground just isn't cutting it but it is the HU that is turning off.
